# Ozerne

A settlement in Ukraine; local name Озерне.

## English name

**Ozerne** — Current official Ukrainian name in national romanization (2010), adopted by BGN/PCGN in 2019; selected for English geographical use. Also matches BGN/PCGN Ukrainian romanization (1965). Also matches ISO 9:1995 character transliteration. Also matches ALA-LC Ukrainian romanization (2011 table).

Other forms in use:

- **Babele** — Romanian historical name. Ukrainian locality text gives both 1947 and a renaming decree dated 14 November 1945; the dates are not silently equated.
- **Ozernoye** — Russian-based spelling for matching older English geographical references; independent prose frequency unverified. Not a separate official renaming.
- **Babel** — Romanization of former Ukrainian Бабель; historical name linked with Romanian Babele.
- **General Al. Averescu** — Interwar Romanian name quoted in locality history; named for Alexandru Averescu, not a separate present settlement.
- **Озерне** — Original Ukrainian spelling for local sources quoted or indexed in English.

## French name

**Ozerne** — Same as in English; used as the French locality heading.

## About

Ozerne is a village near Lake Yalpuh in Odesa Oblast, southwestern Ukraine. Its Romanian historical name, Babele, reflects the region's multilingual past.

## Notes

Ukrainian locality history inconsistently says Babele until 1947 and cites the renaming decree of 14 November 1945. The latter is also given by German/Russian locality references; exact chronology is flagged rather than asserted as 1947. Historical interwar General Al. Averescu does not denote a separate present village. https://archive.od.gov.ua/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/daoo.uar\_.903.1.pdf Standard-derived forms support retrieval without implying English or French press adoption.
